PREFACE TO 1928-29 EDITION.
WE have again pleasure in producing another issue
of our hardy A.nnual. Nothwithstanding the high
prices prevalent (which we do not proportionately follow),
we have maintained the four distinct departments of this
publication, and are pleased they are appreciated.
Rothesay is, of course, the most prosperous. We would
like to see its spirit of enterprise spreading among the
rural districts. They have each and all something to be
proud of. These cannot be properly appreciated until bet-
ter known.
This Directory is not only at hand for reference at all
times throughout the whole county, but it is also ready for
reference in the public libraries of Scotland, England, Ire-
land and Wales, and also in numerous business houses and
agencies in busy centres ; and we are particularly anxious
that nothing of benefit to Buteshire is omitted, but that
all interests have a good show, and everything brought
thoroughly up to date.
The Public Libraries as a rule do not subscribe to
other than the few large National Directories. The more
numerous and detailed District Directories would cost too
much. For years we have sent, complimentarily, copies of
ours— which are much appreciated ; and we are prepared
to increase this muraber by forwarding other free copies
to any Libraries be be named by customers giving orders
to the value of £1.
As our Advertising friends appreciate the continued
distribution of their announcements facing the ordinary
reading matter, we, with prompt receipt of orders, will
keep permanent this decided benefit.
Those who wish Lists of Householders (arranged in
Streets and Wards) can get that in the Official Voters' Roll
— in whole or in parts.
It will be noticed that our Accident Assurance coupon
is increased from £100 to £250.
Our best thanks are again accorded to those who have
in any way helped us in this compilation. It takes long
and careful vigilance to ascertain and give effect to the
-continual changes.
HIGGLE & CO., Printers and Publishers
Rothesay, July, 1928.
P.S. — Will the many persons who consult the Bute County Directory
in the Libraries, Reading [Rooms, Banks, Offices, Shops, etc. , through-
out the County and beyond it, free of charge, please remember that they
are indebted for the privilege to our Subscribers and Advertisers.

As far as we can see, the information about Millport and Cumbrae is quite cor-
rect and thoroughly reliable, so we may take it for granted that the rest of the matter
is th« same. The book, which runs into 144 pp., should be extremely useful and con-
venient for the residents of the county of islands, as well as to visitors, especially those
who have business dealings with the inhabitants.— Largs and Millport News
This useful publication is again to hand. The publishers havo been so enter ■
prising as regards its compilation that the Directory is now an absolute necessity to
business people who have dealings with the picturesque County of Bute. Tt should be
noted that the Directory also contains a useful almanac. — Ardrossan Herald,

us this season comes from Rothesay, Scotland, in the form of a ' Heather
Christmas Card' issued by Messrs Higgie & Co. , of that favourite resort.
. . The two inside pages are surrounded with mottoes, every
one of which breathes a true Scottish sentiment of good will to absent

send us a copy of their guide to ' Bonnie Scotland's Resorts,' a wonder-
ful little compendium of descriptive and historical information."— New

LONG LIVE THE BUTE DIRECTORY
The Opinions of the Press and the Acknowledgments of Libraries
are as complimentary as ever. The " Glasgow Evening News " makes the following
appreciation of " Local Colour. — The compilers of the Bute County Directory
have an ingenious method of making up the local colour and stimulating local pride
instead of filling up the Calendar with the stock anniversaries, they have put against
«ach date a local happening." Thus— [Two events mentioned]. " It is certainly an
idea that makes for ' atmosphere. ' "

COUNTY OF BUTE.
THE COUNTY OF BUTE comprises the seven islands in the Firth of Clyde, viz
— Bute, the most populous; Arran, the largest ; the Great and Little
Cuisibkaes, off the Ayrsmre Coast; Holy Isle and Pladda, off Arran; and Inch-
marnook, off Bute.
The total Area of the County (land and water, exclusive of tidal water) is
139,658 acres, of which 53,510 are mountain and heath lands used for grazing. 3, 8()6
acres are under plantations, and 794 are covered with water There are 25,981 acres
under all kinds of crops, bare fallow and grass, which is a gradual inroad on the
mountain heath and hitherto uncultivated land.
The principal Industries are agriculture, horticulture, and fishing The islands
possess great and varied natural attractions, and are in the forefront as holiday resorts.
The Population of the County (including its Burghs of Rothusay and
Millport) in 1801 was 11,791 ; 1831, 14151; 1861, 16,331; 1881, 17,657. In
1891 it was 18,248 (8,057 males and 10,197 females) ; and in 1901, 18,786 (8,412
males and 10,374 females) — being an increase of 255 in the ten years — 2T per cent
There were 4,270 inhabited houses in the islands.
For 1911, the figures were as follows :—
Males.
Arran - - - 2,169
Bute (including Rothesay) 5,081
Cumbrae - - - 704
*The increased total issued in the Quarterly Return of the Registrar-
General compared with the returns lodged with the Sheriff-Clerk,
may be accounted for by the enumeration of the shipping.
the decreases since 1901 are as follows : Arran, 209; Bute, 330 ; Cumbrae, 62 — 601.
The population at the postponed 1921 census [taken in June instead of April] for the
county, was 33,711 (13,880 males and 19,831 females)— being an increase of 15,525
over 1911.

Parish of North Bute.
^"pHIS is the northern portion of the island of Bute. Port-Bannatyne, its principal
-*- village, is two and a-half miles from Rothesay, with which it is connected by tram-
way. Karnes Castle, in the vicinity, is said to be the oldest inhabited castle in the
•sountry, and was the ancient seat of the Bannatynes. The village was named after
that family — two brothers of whom (John and Gilbert) — received a charter from King
Robert the Bruce, for services rendered at Banuockburn.
At the 1921 census, (taken in June instead of April) the parish contained 1201
males and 1529 females — total, 2730.

BUTE COUNTY DIRECTORY ADVERTISEMENT
€H4RMoftheHE4THER
A SPRIG of SCOTS HEATHER is as lightly thought of at
xl. hame as a drink of cold water (of which there is more than
enough to spare), but it is an inspiration and a valued reminder
of the pleasantest of memories to Scots and their friends abroad.
The exchange of national floral emblems will yet become ex-
ceedingly popular among those who work for human brotherhood.
We produced Victory Commemoration Bookmarks — in con-
nection with the Armistice, the Signing of Peace and the succeed-
ing Joy Day Celebrations, — which were considered very appro-
priate.
Remember Friends Abroad.
While enjoying holidays remember to gather sprigs to send to
friends abroad, or in response to appeals you will see in leading
Scottish weekly newspapers.
We have for years sent boxesfull of heather to friends and so-
cieties abroad. We frequently respond to newspaper appeals, and
the following is a sample of the acknowledgments received :, —
East London, C. P., So. Africa, 18th Dec.
Mr George Higgie, 22 Bridge St., Rothesay, Scotland.
On behalf of the East London Caledonian Society I wish to thank you for bein^
so kind in responding to my appeal for heather, which was sold on our Patron Saint's
Day, and realised the very handsome sum of £265 5/11, and has been forwarded to
the fund for disabled Sailors and Soldiers The heather was received in first-clas*
condition, and was much prized — Yours faithfully, James Fokbes,
Convener of Heather Committee.
It is not only Scots abroad who enjoy a sprig of something that actually grew
at hame. The Glasgow ' Evening Times,' while the above acknowledgment was on the
ocean, printed the following; — " Flower girls in Argj'le Street are making brave dis-
play with the mimosa, which comes to us from the Continent before the swallows or
even the daffodils dare. It is one of the indications, after the shortest day, that
somewhere the sun is shining, and that winter is waning. Australians in town are-
greatly cheered by the golden glory, for the mimosa is the wattle of their homeland,
carrying with it the same significance as the heather to a Scot abroad."
Colonials and others on holiday in this country, have thanked us personally for
sending them souvenirs of Scotland when far away; and others have reciprocated by
sending preserved leaves and flowers from their distant lands.
The exchange of national floral emblems will yet become exceedingly popular.
Botanical Specimens go through the post at letter, sample or parcel rates.

TYPEWRITING,

BOOK-KEEPING.
"V/TR HIGGIE'S CLASSES FOR PRACTICAL INSTRUC-
JJl-L. TION" are conducted daring the two Winter Quarters --
October till December and January till March.
PEIVATE TUITION BY ARRANGEMENT.
Shorthand continues to be taught with a view to its subsequent useful-
ness in Business and Professionally.
In Typewriting" special attention is devoted to Punctuation and Capital-
isation— a thorough knowledge of which is absolutely necessary in Practical Printing
and cannot longer be neglected by those aspiring to be First-Class Typists.
Esp Brant O* — This wonderful International Language is already used for
Business and Pleasure in all parts >>f the world. Mr Higgie is in touch with import-
ant regions all over the world, and regularly corresponds with persons everywhere
— -notwithstanding their different national languages.
This auxiliary language anticipates the happy time whan there will he " Peace
on earth and good will to men," which is coming yet in spite of the present times of
'" great tribulation" — caused by covetousness, selfishness, greed, and wanton hind ranee
to peaceful re construction. The efficacy of the International language in tracing miss-
ing friends and miking new ones has been and is being repeatedly evidenced.
Antieipitiug the b >om in International Trading after the World War, experi-
ments by means of inter-correspondence in Esperanto are being made bybasiness firms
throughout the world with eminently satisfactory results. It is not the tyrants but the
"meek who shall inherit the earth "' The blatant, self-righteous and arrogant despots
were beaten, but Righteousness is yet to be exalted, and fri^htfulness loathed. The
longed-for League of Nations is evolving, when harmony and good-will shall'yet reign
in spite of all present discord an I opposition — but not without many sacrines, much
service and suffering. Prosperity will n >t come through desiring something for no-
thing, but through universal patient industry for the public good.
Book-KdQping1. —Instruction given in Book-Keeping and other Up-to"
Date Business Me h>ds. Advertisement Writing is a Present Day Enviable Pro-
fession, and the ground-work and minutiae have long been familiar to Mr Higgic, a
practical Printer.
Messrs HIGGIE & COY.'S ESPERANTO PUBLICATIONS
are known, read and appreciated throughout the whole civilised world. Muiy of the
contributions are written by up-to-date foreigners.

SPELING REFORM
■mHlS IS NOT A NEW DESIRE ; BUT BESPEAKS
J- A GREATLY INCREASED INTEREST IN A
VERY IMPORTANT SUBJECT AT THE PRESENT
TIME. Under the appropriate heading,
"A Wasted Year,"
there appeared, on Srd May, 1924, a Special Article in the
Evening Citizen, Glasgow, showing that this is the time lest
in the life of every; child in Britain while acquiring the ir-
regular and inconsistent spelling of our language.
The Simplified Spelins Society is promoting a
petition to present to the Prime Minister, calling for the
appointment of a Royal Commission — including Scholars,
Teachers, Men of Letters and Men of Business — to consider
the whole question, and report.
Experiments already made by enthusiasts have proved
eminently satisfactory, and shows how much valuable time
will be saved for other studies by the removal of the speling
incubus.
The Spelina: Reformers include all classes of the people,
and the question is not a party one.
The Simplified Spelino- Society of Great Britain, and
the Speling Reform Association of U. S. A., have issued
the first number of a joint quarterly journal, " Speling."
